Looking for a winter activity?

If you’re looking to gain a qualification, learn a new skill or just meet some new people then one of the Council’s Community Learning courses might be just the thing for you.

From welding to yoga, there’s a vast array of courses available, with something to suit everyone.

New courses available this year include Gregorian Chanting, Deaf and Deafblind Awareness and The World of Beowulf, which looks, in depth, at the translation of the poem by Seamus Heaney.

Full details of all the courses available at www.orkney.gov.uk and a course programme is included in all copies of The Orcadian today.
